Taqueria

Why?You have an alter ego on weekend nights too.

By day, the sliver of a space next to Mercadito Midtown is the red-hot Mexican restaurant’s taco counter. By night, it’s the sort of no-frills, clandestine spot you might find in the locals’ section of Cancun. Dubbed Taqueria Social Club and emerging Thursday through Saturday (from 11 p.m. to 3 a.m.) starting tonight, the low-key bar swaps avocados for alcohol (the latter comes in the form of Mexican beer and cocktails by Manhattan mixologists the Tippling Bros.), and boasts a pop-up DJ booth, with a disco ball thrown in for added flavor
